Much previous study has been done on the degree spectra of prime models of a complete atomic decidable theory. Here we study the analogous questions for homogeneous models. We say a countable model has a d-basis if the types realized in are all computable and the Turing degree d can list -indices for all types realized in . We say has a d-decidable copy if there exists a model ≅ such that the elementary diagram of is d-computable. Goncharov, Millar, and Peretyat'kin independently showed there exists a homogeneous with a 0-basis but no decidable copy.
We prove that any homogeneous with a 0′-basis has a low decidable copy. This implies Csima's analogous result for prime models. In the case where all types of the theory T are computable and is a homogeneous model with a 0-basis, we show has copies decidable in every nonzero degree. A degree d is 0-homogeneous bounding if any automorphically nontrivial homogeneous with a 0-basis has a d-decidable copy. We show that the nonlow2 degrees are 0-homogeneous bounding.
